Florence Heresztyn and her husband, Simon Mazzini, took command of her family’s estate (Domaine Heresztyn) beginning with the 2012 vintage. Although it has only been two years, their wines are radically different than those produced by her father, Stanislaus. While this new adventure is still in its infancy, the family’s Burgundian roots are quite deep, and the quality of this “new” Domaine’s lineup is impressive.

The 2018 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Les Goulots is crafted with sustainable practices, using 50-55% whole bunch fermentation and aging for 16-18 months in oak barrels (30% new). Hand-harvested from 50-year-old vines, it offers a clear, expressive Pinot Noir with depth and complexity. The estate, founded in 1932, is now run by the Heresztyn family, with holdings in Gevrey-Chambertin and Morey St-Denis Premier Crus.

The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Goulots 1er Cru has a tightly-wound nose with crunchy cranberry and redcurrant fruit, nice freshness here with a light oyster shell tincture. The palate is medium-bodied with a grainy-textured opening, red fruit with a liberal dash of black pepper, leading to quite a feisty, attractive finish, though this appears to ebb away after 5-10 minutes in the glass. Give this another year in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.
Anticipated maturity: 2024-2038
A deep ruby in colour. Intense cassis and raspberry scents with a touch of pepper. On the palate, dense and refined with further red-fruit notes. An elegant and harmonious wine with well-balanced tannins and a persistent finish. Drink with roast duck and pomegranates in a walnut sauce, quail casserole or noisettes d’agneau chasseur with wild mushrooms and shallots.
